Northwave Road Bike Shoes Storm Cycling Shoe Men’s

Storm Cycling Shoe

The Storm Cycling Shoe from Northwave might be one of the best looking pair of road shoes we’ve found under $200. Looks aside, it certainly places a premium on ventilation and will keep your feet nice and cool during the warmer months. Add in its stiff sole, hook-and-loop and dial closures, and refined Northwave fit and you have some kicks that are just as eager to hit the road as you are.

The Storm uses a Morph 10 AAS sole with a stiffness index of 10.0 out of 15.0 on the Northwave scale. Using an innovative Anatomical Arch Support made of TPU, it provides a wide range of arch support for varying foot shapes. The sole also allows for the use of the exclusive Northwave Speedplay adapter (sold separately) allowing you to forgo the usual 3-bolt adapter and run the cleat directly on the sole for the lowest stack height between your foot and pedal. This shoe comes with its Performance Regular footbed for all-day support helping to eliminate discomfort and hot spots.

On the outside, unibody construction allows for large, strategically placed mesh inserts with ultra-thin reinforced materials to provide maximum breathability without losing stability. The upper closes with a lower hook-and-loop strap and asymmetric lacing from its SLW2 dial with step by step and full release from one button, providing a snug fit while reducing pressure on the top of the foot.
